Legacy of Olympus
Project Overview
“Legacy of Olympus” is a story about identity, heritage, and the struggle to define one’s path amidst expectations and legacy. It’s a journey of friendship, courage, and self-discovery, all set against the backdrop of modern-day mythology.
The musical follows a group of Greek demigods – children of the Olympian gods – struggling to find their place in the modern world. They each possess unique powers inherited from their divine parents but live in the shadows of their legendary forebears. As tensions rise between the mortal and divine worlds, they must unite to prevent an ancient prophecy from coming to pass – a prophecy that threatens to destroy both realms.
